My horrid racist, bigoted neighbors

A selection of comments concerning the shooting at the Federal Courthouse on Monday. There are a couple I missed because they were deleted, one of which was truly heinous. The Review-Journal story predictably has the worst of it as it is the local conservative rag. But the Sun has some filthy bastards of their own commenting.

Whew! Glad to hear the shooting victims were government union workers and not actual people.

This sad story just noiw being reported, by the media, but I predict…

Many, many, many Metro Police Officers, CCFD and LVFD firefighters were be declared as “Heroes” and we see them over and over and over again on TV, internet, radio and in the print media receiving citations, ribbons, pay raises, Hero blankets, flyovers, salutes, plaques, keys to the city, medals, etc. etc. etc. for their work as Brave Heroes!

Question: Isn’t this the job coppers and firefighters get paid so handsomely for, especially the firefighters???

P.S. Give a medal to Union Representative Ryan Beaman also. With the unions, everyone gets something right?

These animals really hate the local firefighters, as evidenced here:

Hold all the Lobster for us when the truck comes in today. We will as always, buy all the lobster you have.

We have to be gone to some silly little problem down at the Federal Building. Oh well, we’ll get plenty of overtime to sit around and shoot the breeze with the union brother cops.

See you soon,

LVFD

And this guy really has an axe to grind since his home invasion didn’t override crime still in progress.

James the Lawyer wrote on January 04, 2010 04:28 PM: To “CCFD Family”,
To answer your comment, I had a break-in at my expensive house recently. I immediately called Metro and was told by a Metro Officer they WOULD NOT COME OUT TO MY HOUSE. They will always run or sprint to the funeral parlor at the drop of hat for a union brother though.

Metro said they were too short handed and for me to call Commissioner Rory Reid and tell him to increase officer pay and staffing. The loss was over $40,000. I was told to file a written report at one of the Police Stations. Metro was probably at the funeral home forming a parade line for a fellow Hero officer…complete with balloons, candles and flowers.

I did file the break-in report and called a month later to followup and Metro had lost my 4 page report. They had no record of my report…morons.

So “CCFD Family”, see why I have ABSOLUTELY NO RESPECT for you overpaid and under-worked firefighters, coppers, a/k/a by the general public the Las Vegas Morons?!!!

James The Lawyer.

P.S. Was your posted “attorney comment” a physical threat against me and/or my family? If yes, inform me of your real name.

And then there’s just generic cretins who apparently hate everyone. Mormons, Democrats, African-Americans, Firefighters, Policemen, Muslims. If you’ve got a group, they’ll hate it and want it dead:

Glad Wicks was shot and killed. Saved us taxpayers some money and Social Security too.

Yes it is true this man murdered on his job. God Be with him and his whole family.

It was abuse to victims in the story when Senator Harry Reid who lives day by second thinking how much money and power he can have over Americans, and our Country.

These politicians who are destroying our Country have no feeling for America, let alone a hard working man who is now dead to.

Translation: Man brought up thinking he’s entitled to free money finds out he’s going to have to go out and get a job since there is less free money.

Just think an entire generation in their 30s are going to find out there isn’t any social security money for them at all. FRom the article is sounds that he snapped after hearing he’s getting less (rather then none). If just .05% of the people snap like this you’ll have more combatants then some wars.

I hope there is more to this then just money but worse has been done in the name of a few dollars at a liquor store.

We are worn out from sitting in our firetrucks at the Federal Building for hours and hours and hour and earning thousands and thousands of dollars in firefighter overtime pay. The coffee and donuts from COSTCO was appreciated. Next time we need more glazed donuts and fewer sprinkles.

Just think $118 in overtime per hour pay, hell I’ll sleep in my firetruck for that amount of money any time.

Harry and Rory are my Heroes and they are Mormans like me and half my union brothers and sisters. I am black so I am double protected and will be the absolute last person to be fired. Affirmative action got me the job in the first place…and now I am a black, Morman, firefighter Hero and rich!

i love when they print happy new! Great way to start the new year. My heart does the dance of joy ever time a pig died. I hope they all burn in hell.

I mean, I’m not the hugest fan of the police, particularly the Vegas version, but never have I been thrilled at the death of a law enforcement officer of any department dying doing his job. That said, I do reserve the right to chuckle if Joe Arpaio strokes out.

There is some push back against these trolls, but it is drowned out by the hate:

A law officer is killed today and another in serious condition but hey, there’s still some pathetic union-haters finding time to contiue their holy jihad against city workers.

The poster is ONE PERSON — union-hater Helen Weils, who has a hundred aliases.

And a warning that the Rethugs have been stocking up on weapons solely because we have a black president:

Sen. Whitehouse: There Will Be A ‘Reckoning’ For GOP’s ‘Desperate, No-Holds-Barred Mission Of Propaganda’ | TPM LiveWire

Here is Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island calling out the GOP and telling some truths. Primarily that, should the health care bill pass, Americans will finally know that Republicans have been lying to them.

Here are some highpoints:

For some reason, one poignant piece is missing, and it may be something that progressives may be ashamed of. I don’t know why. I think it is the finest bit of his speech.

Concerning Republicans, particularly the most odious ones:

“They are desperate to break this president. They have ardent supporters who are nearly hysterical at the very election of President Barack Obama. The birthers, the fanatics, the people running around in right-wing militia and Aryan support groups, it is unbearable to them that President Barack Obama should exist. That is one powerful reason. It is not the only one.”

To see the whole of Whitehouse’s segment, try around 1:16 at the follow video, which of course has since been pulled.

Daily Kos: The Irrefutable Stupidity of Sarah Palin (and other Republican idiots)

I swear, I really don’t get the Palin fan base. Why all the love for someone who constantly reminds us what a full-blown moron she is.

Seriously, this latest bit just hurts the brain.

Meanwhile, it turns out the college aged Palin ran away from Hawaii Pacific University because it had too many minorities. No, I’m not making this up. Of course, her next college was in the lily white (supremacist) land of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho

Meanwhile, in an unusual twist, FAUXNews is concerned about health care reform not covering abortions because, wait for it, it might lead to a rise of “more low-income babies”.

Of course, I’m sure their concern is about the color of said low-income babies. Gasp!

Surprise! A Senate report has “discovered” that Donald Rumsfeld’s idiotic military planning allowed bin Laden to escape Afghanistan. Seriously, why aren’t any of these people doing time?

People look to these imbeciles for guidance and information. Incredible!

Report Examines Civil Rights Enforcement During Bush Years – NYTimes.com

Not that I am surprised but it turns out that during the Reign of Bush the Justice Department was either actively told to ignore or actively thwarted from addressing civil rights abuses. Yes, that’s right, even Bush, who I probably think isn’t a racist, couldn’t help himself from the GOP mantra that racism doesn’t exist because it isn’t happening to them.

So now evidence that they truly were trying to set folks up as second- or third-class citizens.

In similar news, a Judge upheld the Voting Rights Act which protects minority groups from having their votes taken from them. The suit was filed by, you guessed it, the Republican National Committee. Sadly the judge did weaken the act somewhat, which is something we should all be on the lookout for.

Actually, I believe in karma and irony and I actually hope that the Voting Rights Act becomes weakened. You know, so maybe it becomes completely irrelevant and useless come the day that angry racist white Republicans actually need it to protect their access to the franchise. Yes, that’s a dirty evil Republican thing to say but it would serve the anti-American bastards right.

Think Progress » Will the RNC apologize for racist Facebook photo?

Republicans are really getting onboard this newfangled Facebook thingy. Enough so that they’ve learned to upload funny photos. Well, funny to them anyway.

The GOP has tried to distance themselves from this, but they haven’t denounced it. This, as usual, is the Republican Party trying to shush the sheet wearing crowd behind the curtain as opposed to revealing all the evil in their ranks and asking them to leave. I mean, hell, you are already losing elections, why not try to do the right thing for the first time since 1863?
